My Favorite 15-Minute Dinner is Garlic knot Chicken.

All the tastes of traditional Garlic knot Chicken.

As a Native New Yorker, I grew up eating garlic knots and occasionally even liked them over pizza so any time I went to a pizza shop I generally ordered one or two.since moving to central maine where they are a little harder to find, i have often had a need for garlic rings.

I understood that what I was craving was a blend of flavors—cheesy, garlicky, and buttery. Though wonderful, the bread serves just as a vehicle for the flavors. So I changed the car instead of tying my own knots because who has time for that? The ideal blank canvas to bring the taste into dinnertime is chicken breasts.

This is a really simply this that required five inderedients except for oil salt and pepper. to balances the richness of chicken .i suggest adding a fresh lemon the end if you chance to have one on hand.

Serve this chicken with garlic knots and a side dish to mop up the flavorful butter sauce. Crusty bread, egg noodles, or mashed potatoes are all excellent choices.

Place the chicken breasts flat on a chopping board and use a sharp knife to neatly cut them in half horizontally. Alternatively, use a meat mallet to pound them until they are roughly half an inch thick.
